Help Us Grow Dreams by Making a Donation Today - With Your Support Our Dreams Can Take Root

The numbers are in and we couldn't be more proud to announce that we served nearly 17,000 children and families in 2015 at the Cibolo Nature Center & Farm! It is through the generous donations of our many supporters that we are able to continue doing so. Here's what people are saying about our programs:

"For me, it is important to save what natural areas we have and to teach the children who are the future-and adults who seek information about resources, history and nature. CNC & Farm has honored these important issues - if it has to do with the outdoors, gardening, wildlife, native plants, and the opportunity to learn, it is available at the CNC & Farm.” -Daneshu Clarke, Volunteer

"The Cibolo Nature Center set off a spark for me and ultimately led me into water conservation. My career path has led me from the Nature Conservancy in Austin to working as a water shed administrator for the City of Waco and to my current position at the Texas State Meadows Center for Water and the Environment- but it all began at the nature center.” - Jenna Walker, former CNC & Farm Camp Counselor

"I wish you could see the excitement of when they find something and how they run or shout, I see the red bird, I found a bug, I caught something!" - Outdoor Classroom Participant

“The Cibolo Nature Center is this community's last chance to experience how the environment would be if the Boerne area was not as developed as it is today. As our community grows and more and more people flood to our hill country, we will only see the eradication of native habitats. This is Boerne's greatest chance to educate kids and adults on environmental awareness. The lessons I've learned here throughout my life I hold with high value. Without the nature center, my generation would not have had a place to go be free and spend essential time with our native homeland." - Orion Abernathy, CNC & Farm Summer Camp Unit Manager

"They offer an experience that is hard to do in a lab or a classroom setting." - Outdoor Classroom Participant
